Great Memory

A Memory of North Cheam.

Moved to London Road near Lloyd Road around 1946. Lived over a hardware store near Tracy's News Shop. Went to Ridge Road School in Miss (or Mrs) Clarke's class. Later moved to Hemingford Road and went to a boys school somewhere near Priory Road. Learned to swim at the Baths. Good friend was David Feather. Walked to cinema every Saturday with sixpence in pocket. Caught the 156 bus at corner of London Road and Wordsworth Drive to Morden Underground. Had walks and picnics in Nonsuch Park with my dog Ricky. Father and I went to Box Hill on weekends. Moved with parents to America in 1952 but great memories of a safe and happy childhood. After we moved here we lived close to a very nice lady who ran a garden store. She was from Worcester Park My last visit was in 2014. London Road was busier, wider but most of the shops were still there with new owners. One new one was MacDonalds!!!
